Lover of a Friend

War of attrition, impossible mission,
Guns set down in forced coalition.

My heart exploding, our love imploding,
Mixed messages forever decoding.

Standing stone still, without any will,
Hours spent gazing from my windowsill.

Cannot comprehend, lover of a friend,
All I ask now is where will it end?

News: two more poems on SpunOut.ie

SpunOut.ie have published two more of my poems, Turquoise and Lover of a Friend. I didn't publish Lover of a Friend on this blog for the simple reason that I actually forgot to, and the fact the site doesn't credit me with writing the poem makes it look like I'm trying to take credit for something I didn't write - but I assure you all now I did actually write it and I have the email from SpunOut.ie crediting me with writing the poem!
